Etayner Mixed Up with Him-UnabIe TO
Maniputate the Baltimore and ohio
Deal-Ives Interview with Gould-
A. Proposition, and the Answer-
Threats and Rnmors or All Kinds.
New YORK, July A.--For several days
Wall street has been afflicted with rum
ors that the Ives-Stayner party was not
succeeding in its efforts to carry out the
contract that Mr.. Ives made last spring
to buy AIT the Baltimore s. Ohio railroad
and all its auxiliary companies. So far
as indications went these rumors came
principally from q direction in which
there are popularity supposed to DO buy
ers for the Baltimore g. Ohio telegraph
company. AS q matter OF fact, ever since
the collapse OF the Manhattan bubble
nearly three weeks since, there seems to
have been a pretty uniform disposition to
attack the credit of Henry L Ives & Co.,
but at last accounts the young Napoleon
Of finance was doing business at the old
stand. He had nothing to say about the
current reports that his plans had failed
of success, but those authorized to speak
for him said he was all right in every re-
respect, and that il he should decide to
shat up shop he would be the only ono
that would suffer.
Mr. Jay Gould, among others, is re-
sponsible for the statement that Mr.. Ives
has offered to sell all the property of the
baltimore & Ohio telegraph company to
Mr.. Could and his associates In the West
ern Union telegraph company for So, 500,-
600 At first Mr.. Ives wanted 81, 900, 600
for the property, and It is said that Mr..
Gould intimated that it might be worth
80, 100000. Mr.. Ives apparently split the
difference. The latter part of last week
Mr.. Ives put his proposition to sell in
writing and turned it oyer to Mr.. Gould,
in whose company he has been a good
deal of late. Without an answertto the
propositions, 30 far as the price is coz
cerned, Mr.. Ives was asked to produce his
authority to offer the property as evil
dence of his ability to transfer it il his
proposition should be accepted. OF
course he was acting under the option
which he obtained from Robert Garrett
last spring to purchase a majority Of the
stock Of the Baltimore & Ohio railroad
company, which is the present company,
at 5000 d share. Ives has managed to
keep this option alive by successive exten
account of II.
tension OF his option expired about the
time he made the proposition to Mr..
Gould to sell the telegraph property fol
IS, 500, 600. Anyway, the would-ba buy
ers say that as yet Mr.. Ives has failed to
show that he can deliver the property he
has offered to sell. AS soon as Wall street

How an Editor Cleaned a Stove.


Experience teaches, though it costs,
and we who have had it and paid for it
should impart it to the public.
Quite number of years ago / was
running one-horse weekly paper in
Illinois. The composition room and
editorial room and press room were
comprised in one apartment, aud one
stove warmed the entire establishment.
We burned soft coal, and the pipe
became clogged with SCOT until there
was no draught to the stove. / had
heard that gunpowder was good
thing to clear out SCOT, and / tried tho
experiment, pouring some powder on a
piece of paper, twisting up the paper,
pitching it into the stove, shutting the
door and awaiting the result.
The experiment was effective, but IL
was some time before / recovered
from the effects sufficiently to appreci-
ate the effectiveness. The SCOT was
completely removed to the cases, tho
editorial table and every thing else
in the room, and it took us two or three
days to get rid of it. OF course there
was no SCOT in the new stove and pipo
when l had bargaihed for them and put
them up, but have sometimes thought
that it might have been better to begin
the business at that end. Perhaps l
twisted the paper little too tight.
One can't always tell just how a scheme
is going to work. Travellers
